1. Empty green tooltip displayed when hovering over a List Widget with Dropdown View that already contains a value selected in ThingWorx

2. Cannot remove the tooltip green arrow from a dropdown widget, even though there isn't any tooltip text associated with it

 

Thingworx version are 7.3.10

 

thanks

@CHASEONHO Yes it is not possible to hide tooltips for a List widget in 8.2+. This has been reported to R&D as JIRA TW-34841. R&D may look into adding a new boolean property to enable/ disable the appearance of tooltips as a new feature request.

Greetings @CHASEONHO,

 

This was a known issue and it was fixed in ThingWorx 8.0 version.

 

The workaround for this is:

  • Find the appropriate combination for Width and WidthOfDropdownView widget property values
  • For example:
    • Width=300 & WidthOfDropdownView=270 works fine
    • Width=300 & WidthOfDropdownView > 270 faces the issue

 

If my response has answered your question, please mark as Accepted Solution, for the benefit of others who may have the same question.

 

Regards,

In version 8.2, tooltips are displayed even if the width is 300 and WidthOfDropdownView  is 270.

Hi @CHASEONHO,

 

There was an issue the previous versions that blank tooltip shows on mashup even if there is value selected in dropdown. This is fixed in ThingWorx 8.0 version.

 

The current functionality is tooltip will be visible if there is some value selected in dropdown list and tooltip will not be visible if there is no value/blank in dropdown list.

 

Tooltip visible when value is selected

Tooltip not visible when no value/blank in dropdown list.

Tooltip will be visible only when we hover the mouse over dropdown.

 

 

Thanks,
